Various outlets, such as PushSquare, reported that firmware update version 1.70 will be released on April 30th.
The patch contains a plethora of new features, including an HDCP toggle and digital preloading for pre-ordered games. Most notably, though, it includes the recently revealed SHAREfactory software, which will allow you to edit together clips that you've recorded, and then upload them to the social media stream of your choice. You can find out exactly what sort of videos that you'll be able to make with the application through here.
While I've never been too involved in using social media with video games, perhaps having easy-to-use software like SHAREfactory will finally get a majority of gamers to do something cool and share it to the world. But most gamers will definitely be interested in using HDCP toggle and being able to preload games that they buy of PSN -- which is one feature I can't wait for.
It's not confirmed, but another option that PushSquare talked about was the potential to dim the light bar on the DualShock 4. Why this wasn't implemented in the first place is still a wild mystery.
